Sedation For Every Situation

Sedation for Every Situation

When you need sedation for every situation
Should try something they call sublimation
While poets write poems that are heavier
Which are ones they all favor and savor. 

Myself I am rather some simple sort
Who likes living on my own self-support
With poems firmly and clearly in my mind
Never loosing others or leaving them behind.

Don't need a long list with a super suspense
Won't fear results of my each consequence
That may end up becoming predicated
On way other's positions are situated.

There's no way my poem can be confusing
Or of grandeur creating an optical illusion
If what you inferred and infused is correct
Is there some animosity in it I do detect?

When looking at things will be many ways
And pills laying out in long, prolific trays
Beside each other that are running tandem
Would you want selection to be random?

Why not wait for doctor to prescribe
Then a round of beer start to imbibe
Because, of course, what we want to select
Is comforting thought having that same effect.

All I want to do is motivate and be an inspiration to others for them to start writing poems. It is such a great emotional outlet. How did you happen to find my poem anyway. Jim Horn

You manage to capture a sate of being and wrestle it to the paper. Well done. Emile.

I just might be overdoing it just a tad at times. Glad to see you having just as great time writing poems as I am. Jim Horn
